The cupcake wrappers are very stylish and fit around a standard baked cupcake (she also sells wrappers for mini cupcakes). They come in a huge variety of colors and patterns and are very easy to assemble.

I had the opportunity to try two sets of wrappers the pink damask and the Hot Pink Lime Green Orange Shebert Wrappers. I love these wrappers because they are bright and makes me think about the warm weather!

Hot Pink Orange Lime Green Wrappers

My daughter loves pink so I decided to use the pink for her birthday cupcakes. I baked the cupcakes in the oven and then once they cooled I took them out of the cupcake pan and placed them in the wrappers. Then I decorated them after placing them in wrappers. I have to admit I don't normally use store bought frosting, but I decided to take the easy route and just buy a can for her cupcakes.

Lt Pink Damask Wrappers

Since I normally don't use it I had a harder time with the frosting, but the wrappers I think took away from the less than perfect icing job! I really enjoyed using these cupcake wrappers. I had never used wrappers before on cupcakes but they were easy and really fun and I think that they are a huge imporvement over cupcaker liners!
